Persistence of Memory Print

Surreabstact art is a continuous metamorphic state of mind in another dimension present on earth. Masha Schwartz is a professional artist born in Ukraine in 1982 and currently residing in the USA. She’s known for her vibrant, “Surreabstract” style which combines the surreal and abstract elements in the same space. This style questions the visual clarity and lucidity experienced during the “critical paranoia” state coined by Dali, further exploring the dreams and associated realities. By adding music to the mix, the artist is able to create in their zone of genius a piece in a color palette that makes others feel positive, energized and creative. Music engages our emotional side which helps us connect the dots of the puzzle posed by the subconscious mind and transforms the rough sketch to a functional masterpiece. The Virtual Reality (VR) and NFT space offer a unique opportunity in exploration of the surreal worlds depicted in her paintings. Masha’s series of magnificent works pay tribute to the masters, including Dali, Gockel and Kandinsky. She studied at Towson University in Maryland from 2000 till 2004 focusing on graphic arts and marketing, and later completed Post Graduate studies at Phoenix University and Doctoral studies at UMUC developing her business expertise. Upon completion of her doctoral degree in international business in 2015 Masha opened her own business venture, Vivid Connect, which helps entrepreneurs, creatives and small businesses gain success worldwide and in 2020 she launched a stock trading company to help demystify investments and how money works for women overcoming challenges of the Covid pandemic. In 1997, Masha began publicly displaying her works and over the past 20+ years she has been commissioned for murals and varied art pieces. She has held several solo exhibitions, and has been included in numerous group and collective shows. Masha’s work has been acquired and included in interesting private and corporate collections, throughout the world. As a versatile and future oriented artist Masha hopes to influence the business world with her unique visions and to one day open a traveling art museum where children, entrepreneurs and artists could gain inspiration working side by side with the artist.
